1:43 am
had been abandoned for many years and was currently being renovated. flames also torched the wall of a nearby house. tonight the u.s. military is taking disciplinary action against a group of elite navy seal's because of what the men did for a bay area company. cbs 5 reporter christin ayers shows us the video game that may reveal government secrets. >> reporter: they call it medal of honor war fighter. a war video game so life-like that its creators, redwood city based electronic arts, consulted with current members of the navy's storied seal team, including the men who may have helped take down osama bin laden. now seven seal's have been reprimanded, their pay partially forfeited, for leaking classified military secrets. the game does not re-create the
1:44 am
bin laden raid and it's unclear what information the seal's shared. the navy is not discussing the breach but says the seal's have been punished for misconduct. quote, we do not tolerate deviations from the policies that governor who we are and what we do as sailors in the united states navy. since the raid that brought down bin laden, the seal's team has become a source of intrigue. other seal's are starring in a hollywood movie, act of valor. >> i think eight of them, one of them may be out now, that participated in this. it started off as a recruiting film. >> reporter: the bin laden raid will also be the subject of the hollywood movie dark 30, set to premiere in september. but it's the unapproved disclosure of information to electronic arts that has seven

1:47 am
take a single mother with two kids making $50,000 a year. if we go over the fiscal cliff, she'll pay an extra $1,000 for an increase in social security taxes. and more than $1,000 because the bush-era income tax cuts are set to expire, meaning an extra $3,000 out of her paycheck next year. today, vice president biden predicted the two sides will come up with a solution. >> we're not going over the cliff. we're determined not to go over the cliff. >> reporter: it's not just the bush-era tax cuts. going over the cliff would also trigger massive federal spending cuts. that combination could push us back into another recession. the president will talk about all this when he makes his first official post-election comments tomorrow. elizabeth cook, cbs 5. he has been criticized for being too cool, too detached.

1:51 am
there is a new way to build a homemade gun that metal detectors cannot detect. it's perfectly legal and unregulated. cbs 5's allen martin shows us how 3-d printers are being used to make plastic guns that will be able to fire real and deadly bullets. [ sound of gunshots ] >> reporter: they come in all shapes and sizes. and now there's a whole new way that a piece can be produced. >> it's a project that
1:52 am
developed an idea. >> reporter: the brain child of a university of texas law student has become a reality, thanks to something called a 3- d printer. the machine actually looks like a photocopier and usually generates models like these. but the group is looking to make a real gun. here's how it works. the design of the gun is programmed into a 3-d printer. the printer then shapes a piece of hard plastic into a fireable weapon. the process takes hours. the group is collecting designs from contributors around the world. the final schematics will be distributed online. then anyone with a 3-d printer and a computer will be able to print a gun at home. >> we've now crossed the threshold. we're there. we will have the reality of a weapon system that can be printed out from your desk. >> reporter: the printers cost anywhere from just a few thousand to 100,000. making a gun in your garage or basement for personal use is
1:53 am
well within your rights. >> a law-abiding citizen who decides they want to manufacture a firearm for themselves can do that legally, as long as that gun doesn't meet certain criteria. >> reporter: they add, making a gun at home is nothing new. that doesn't mean they won't be keeping a careful eye on it, as 3-d printers could bring a new dimension to making weapons in the u.s. >> if it becomes a concern for public safety, we will go out with messages to the public on some of the concerns and the do's and don'ts with that. >> reporter: allen martin, cbs 5. as for those texas grad students, the company that had initially leased them the 3-d printer took it back. but we talked to the student, and he is confident that he will have access to a new 3-d printer soon. it's not your imagination. pollen is getting worse these days. and it turns out, being wealthy might make your child more likely to have a peanut allergy. what is he talking about?
1:54 am
a study from the american college of allergy, asthma and immunology finds greater childhood allergy rates among wealthier families. in other words, quote, oversanitation -- again, their words -- might suppress the natural development of your kids' immune system. you oversanitize them. just one factor that bay area researchers have suspected. >> if there's a genetic component, that's something that's inherited from family to family. but in addition, there's something in the environment. >> also in the environment, more pollen, warmer temperatures. we're talking about climate change here. not make-believe. they produce higher pollen counts. researchers say by the year 2040, those counts could double, meaning twice the suffering. day one, and it was a madhouse at the mall. this was a view from chopper 5 earlier tonight. 580 was backed up all day long

1:56 am
good if you don't have a wrist band, you don't get the bag. they said they had them for 750 people but they're out. they're gone. >> reporter: even those who heard there was traffic saw the news reports on the traffic and still decided to come and sit in the traffic. irene williams lives in bay point. >> it was like the 49er game. >> reporter: we spotted the infamous swag bag with little giveaways and we spotted a lineup of shoppers who decided 50% off seemed like a giveaway. >> so it's worth waiting in line for the 50% off obviously? >> yes. even if we're not buying anything. we're just curious to see what they have. >> reporter: as for the mood, lively and lucrative for both shoppers and merchants. >> they actually made their sales plans already, by about 11:30 this morning, so we know people had a great day here. >> reporter: the outlet closed
